Oooh, I like his Friendly Arm Inn pic.

The good news is that I'll be up all night playing so pm me those battletags!

ARGH only 65% downloaded... Am only achieving a paltry 376 kb/s download speed damn my shoddy budget internet...

You know it will be addictive crack-gaming Morgie

^ Yes, it has a certain raffish charm. You need to kind of explore a bit, maybe head south to the lakes. Although Berlin is really about sneaking about bars all night.

I want to go to Russia, badly. But need an excuse.

Was on top of The Wall when it came down, hammering away with a piece of lamp-post we'd liberated. Some East German naval infantrymen helped us. It was crazy, although David Hasselhoff wasn't in my bit of town (which IIRC would have been near Kreuzberg).

Patience, Tigs, patience.

I like Germany. And Berlin is one of my favourite cities in the world.

Installing now...

My battletag is AirfixPanzer#2822

No. I am not particularly impressed with Blackwater, although I am cautiously favourable to PSCs who sign up to and abide by the Montreaux principles.

Yup, that's about it. A discrete but to some probably important difference.

Ah, something we probably agree on. Yes, you're better off out. I doubt we'd agree on what next, though, because my solution involves Predator drones 24/7.

The funny thing is that fan fixpacks have put almost all of these issues to bed over the past twelve years - a full BG TuTu install properly done and modded is probably the most stable IE experience you'll ever have. How does it work if a developer wants to use a modder's content - does the original EULA mean that the modder in effect doesn't own it so, say, Trent and Co could use it?

You assigned your own stat points and there were more skill trees, IIRC. So technically there were more 'builds' available. I liked the Paladin, Barbarian and Assassin classes and played them as fairly vanilla builds myself so I'm not too concerned about the changes but some of the more stat-inclined might be. Edit: For me Diablo 2 was all about exploring huge dungeons, loot and over-the-top, frenetic fighting. D3 has these things in abundance by the sound of it.

Gfted, what are your views about character builds and customisation? Some folks have expressed concerns about the new system.

Krezack is a central-casting leftist. If you don't want to give half your money away to the nearest unemployed person and live in a yurt then you are a running dog of the Capitalist overlords. Or something.

I have the money sitting on a loyalty card I found in my wallet, so I can only spend it on games anyway... And I think it looks great, and I love the idea of some old-fashioned mouse-mashing goodness.

I am jealous. That is all.

Hey, Jayce, my George Forman grill is full of burgers. How can I keep my old ones while I'm grilling new ones. Do you know George Foreman? Can I get his telephone number from you?

Feeling a bit better today but still slept badly, bathed in cold sweat. Will try to go to work tomorrow.

God this is dull. Put Vol on ignore. I've had him there for two years. I've fond memories of the little scamp but the same thing in stereo *forever* was driving me nuts. I know he's in the thread somewhere because you're all replying... but why?
